Turin – Juve does not stop. Empoli with just a moderate effort, initially played by leaders and a second control. The 1-0 signature is a return to the past: in the list of scorers reappeared Mario Mandzukic, primed by a Pogba at times dominated the Stadium of contention. While continuing the disturbing strip of blue in the second round – in the “victories” resists the number zero, even if the team is virtually saves – you have to register the muscle yet another stop for the Old Lady: Chiellini, to return after the problem calf raises the white flag for a pain in the thigh start shooting. But injuries, at least so far, do not obstruct the path of Buffon and companions, who lead momentarily to +6 on Napoli, called to account in Udine in a trip not to be underestimated.
THE BEST not mark – the two souls of Juventus night are Paul Pogba and Alvaro Morata, matadors halftime and still protagonists in a recovery that saw Juventus try to save breath against Empoli who tried valiantly to take control of the match but without having the qualities. Lacking tremendously by Maccarone goals the Azzurri, who lose a Saponara not irresistible to injury in early recovery: More and Krunic, justified by age and inexperience, they do not affect in a scenario of high level as that of the Stadium. Just Saponara had had in the opening race the greatest opportunity to unlock the deadlock: left top from close range after the rebound Tonelli-angle Chiellini on developments. Not surprisingly, the presence in the field of the central Juventus, as owner by almost everyone on the eve, while more surprised by Barzagli and Marchisio names: Allegri is likely all bruised, remains faithful to the 3-5-2 and hijacks Rugani on the center-right . The chance of Saponara responds badly Mandzukic, wasting a delicious invitation Pogba with a left too central to beat Skorupski. Who goes near the masterpiece is Morata, his right to ride leaves from the limit but still the Pole crashed into the corner of the goal. Spanish is very inspired, flips from right to left, making them forget an absence as heavy as that of Dybala.
Mandzukic bY THREE POINTS – They try even the Juve defenders. Lichtsteiner – twice from outside the box, big server called Calvarese that in one of two occasions detects the offside Morata, ready to embark on the door – and Chiellini, whose right melee ends out. It serves the magic of Pogba to break the bank. Sublime cross from the left, Mandzukic impact of head from the small of the heart and its soft gore is worth three points. The hosts started well after the break, the usual Morata scares Skorupski concluding very tight angle. Chiellini and Saponara go ko, Juventus has no defenders role on the bench: it’s up to Cuadrado, the module becomes a 4-4-2 and the distances are lost, because Pereyra, already uncomfortable from intermediate right in the middle three, begins to reel from central alongside Marchisio, forced to shoulder much of the defensive work. Morata helps on the wing, Empoli pushes it does not sting, except for an attempt at Maccarone. “Big Mac”, very good under the balloon protection, no impact to duty from the heart of the 23 ‘. Allegri falls on the table Zaza paper, which entered the game started to press anything: yellow card after less than sixty seconds for the former Sassuolo (and risk of red already completed the game for excessive protests against Calvarese). The jolt Juventus in the final comes with the arrival of Asamoah instead of Pereyra, Juve close to scoring three times: first with a gem of Pogba, a touch below that misses the target by a matter of centimeters, then with Morata. The Spaniard shot from the edge, Skorupski rejects bad but redeems itself with a resounding reflection on the tap-in Asamoah. Former Real wants to score his friend Zaza, lengthen the left, sudden steering and touch back to the number 7: Skorupski says no but for its Empoli is too late. He wins the Old Lady, now almost no longer news.
